What is Subledger Accounting?
What is Subledger Accounting?
Subledger Accounting is a set of services for R12 that significantly enhances accounting support across the E-Business Suite.
Subledger Accounting is a data store in the same way as General Ledger but Subledger Accounting provides the detailed data whereas General Ledger provides a summarized version. Subledger Accounting is therefore a “true” subledger.
Introduction to Subledger Accounting
Subledger Accounting is mainly a rule-based accounting engine that centralizes accounting for Oracle E-Business Suite products in R12.
Subledger Accounting is not a separate product in itself, but is Oracle’s engine catering to the accounting needs of Oracle applications.

Overview of Subledger AccountingChapter 2 - Page 4
Together with the new ledger support, Subledger Accounting enables support of multiple accounting requirements concurrently in a single instance. Different accounting regulations can be satisfied by maintaining and applying different sets of rules to different sets of transactions; or accounting for the same transaction with multiple methods.
By maintaining a full link between the transaction and accounting data, Subledger Accounting allows powerful reconciliation and auditing capabilities.
Since Subledger Accounting provides the setup and inquiry user interface and data model for accounting across modules, Subledger Accounting enables consistency in reporting, analysis, and user experience.
Introduction to Subledger Accounting
Let us assume a US based corporation with operations in the UK and France.
The French operation is subject to French accounting regulations, and therefore must report its activities to the local authorities in Euros, according to the French business calendar, French chart of accounts, and the French interpretation of IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards).
The UK operation, similarly, is subject to the UK regulations, which for this example’s sake are not as restrictive as the French ones. Thus, the UK operation does its local reporting in the local currency, the British Pound, but according to the US business calendar, US chart of accounts (COA), and US GAAP.
The US operation reports in the USD according to the US business calendar, US COA, and GAAP.
In the R12 ledger setup, each of these operations would be defined as three separate ledgers to satisfy local reporting requirements.
The US headquarters/parent company would need to have a consolidated global visibility of the worldwide operations, however, it would not be very meaningful to consolidate or compare each of these entities with each other. Firstly, because the reporting currencies are different. Secondly, the COA and the method of accounting for the French activities may be considerably different than those in the UK and US. For example, in France, purchases or inventory will be reported as expenses, whereas in the UK and the US they will be reported as inventory items. Therefore, a simple currency conversion will not suffice. With the R12 ledger architecture and Subledger Accounting, the following model can be implemented to solve this business need:
For the UK operation, activities can be converted to the US equivalent simply by converting the currency since the calendar, COA, and accounting methods are the same. You can set this up by adding a reporting currency to the UK ledger.
For the French operation, a currency conversion alone will not work. You will need to define a secondary ledger for the French ledger, which will share the same currency, COA, calendar, and accounting method as those at HQ.

Overview of Subledger AccountingChapter 2 - Page 5
By defining the reporting currency and secondary ledgers, the three operations can satisfy local regulations, and also allow comparison and consolidation.
In the definition above, Subledger Accounting allows:
multiple accounting methods to be defined
separate accounting methods to be used on different ledgers
Journal entries to be created on multiple ledgers for a single business event (French activities accounted for on the primary ledger according to the IFRS method, and on the secondary ledger according to the US GAAP method).
Introduction to Subledger Accounting
You can see at a glance exactly where the accounting comes from.
This is a journal entry created upon the validation of an accounts payable invoice. Notice the description on the journal entry as well as information from the invoice itself which will help in associating the entry with the transaction.
Introduction to Subledger Accounting
Subledger Accounting tracks how the journal entry is built from a transaction.
On the left-hand side of the screen, you can see an invoice for two items, freight, and tax.
On the right, you can see two entries have been created: one on the US corporate ledger and the other on the FR statutory ledger.
The expense entry is created for the two line items of the invoice.
The next two lines (2 and 3) are for freight and tax respectively.
The rules have been set up to summarize all of this information and create a single liability entry. You could also configure the rule so that 3 or 4 separate liability lines are created.
Subledger Accounting stores and enables you to track how each line of the invoice contributed to the journal entry.
Introduction to Subledger Accounting
Let us go back to the previous example and look at a payment that pays off the invoice. The SLA data model not only allows keeping the transaction-to-accounting link, but the inherent features also allow the transaction flows to be reflected on the accounting side. You can see here that a particular payment is applied to a particular invoice liability.
Using the SLA Business Flows functionality, we are able to go back to the journal created for the invoice and view the exact liability account, at the exact rate that the invoice was converted at, if it was a foreign currency one, at the time of accounting for the payment.

What is a subledger?
Example: The Receivables subledger stores receivables by customer, but this detail is not needed in a general ledger.

Subledger Balances
Subledger Balances
Control Account: An asset or liability account (receivable or payable) to which only entries for subledger transactions with trading partners (suppliers or customers) can be booked. No manual GL adjustments are allowed. Subledger balances are tracked at an account and trading partner level.
